I was wondering if you and your team were working along side with the people who hare developing it for the Vibrant and Captivate, SGS phones. Im not positive but you all seem to be right around the same point in development.
[Epic 4G General] bjhill2112:
I would have been a little sarcastic. :D
[Epic 4G General] Esteway.619:
That link is cool lol
[Epic 4G General] rip2:
I love let me google that for you I use it whenever I can.

On topic gfj devs! I'm very excited to get cm on my phone soon I miss it so much coming from the old G1.
[Epic 4G General] AmericanJedi001:
To Dameon87, Nullghost, and DevinXtreme, first of all, I want to say thanks for doing what you guys are doing. Yeah, so you're doing it for yourselves I'm sure, but obviously you're doing it to contribute to the Epic community as well--Thanks!

Secondly, I'm amazed at the progress you gents* are making--nothing short of astounding! I'm no hacker, but I know that what you're doing is a large--if not enormous--undertaking.

I remember back in June (I had an HTC Evo then) when I first got an Android phone I quickly found out that CM was the OS most spoken of, and I've been looking forward to trying it out: I haven't even messed with other ROMs or kernels. I can't wait to help you guys test and see the awesomeness for myself! Thanks again!

* You are all dudes, right? ;)
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
It's even easier to appreciate them if you imagine a team of attractive (yet intelligent) young women.
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
People would start asking for digits instead of ETA's if they imagined that..
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
Man, just when I thought CM7 for the Epic couldn't get any sexier you had to bring metaphorical hot women developers pun into my long wait for something Cyanogen Mod. These guys are rocking this development!
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
No, these GIRLS...

is it odd that music streaming works but data doesn't?
[Epic 4G General] riceknight:
LOL learn something new every day. You take a mini pre dump on someone's driveway before the big one, is that releasing an RC of an RC?
[Epic 4G General] Shiggity:
This phone has WiFi as well as cell radios remember. ;) I was more concerned with the libaudio implementation than the radio for receiving and sending the data...

Noobnl is not on this one?
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
If you looked literally ONE page back you'd see he was. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G General] rip2:
Well just from what I've read in this topic. Noobnl has pointed them to the road blocks he had and they have even used some of his code as well as devs from other roms. He is not listed as part of there team but looks to be cheering them on just like the rest of us.

[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
Due to unforseen retardedness on the part of samsung, I was unable to fix ril yet. I will not be returning home until Friday. So I will not be able to work on it further until then.

Sorry guys =\ I really wanted to get an alpha out ;(

Any idea if that has to do with Sprint being a cdma network? Or just samsung being bass ackwords from anyone else?
[Epic 4G General] othan1:
For people who are skeptics and cynics, we wouldn't be bothered by this statement because we already know there is no such thing as a hot developer chick.

It's like the other rule: "There are no women on the internet."

They're unbreakable and have no exceptions whatsoever. If you meet an attractive female who claims to use the internet and/or is a developer, you can dismiss her claims as outright lies; she must have been coached.

See disclaimer.
[Epic 4G General] Shiggity:

Also, where are you if you're not @ home?

[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
You mean Sammy right ?
[Epic 4G General] adamw1101:
it bothers me to hear that considering i once owned a moment and the data issue nightmare that followed. Samsung needs to get more intensive with the development department.
[Epic 4G General] rip2:
How do you devs put up with this crap? You guys are supposed to be the ones "cutting corners" yet we find out everyday its the other way around.
[Epic 4G General] rygran87:
Our devs don't cut any corners. They cut out the crap that the manufacturers and carriers put on their roms and then optimize them. Samsung definitely cut corners on the RIL big time. Now the developers are stuck dealing with it. Have faith, though. They'll get it going.
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:

[Epic 4G General] dcowboys2184:
Exactly what I was thinking ... They should be able to approve it since it follows all guidelines... I think..
[Epic 4G General] Poryhack:
It probably won't be until after the camera and GPS are working.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Ok, I have only been flashing custom ROMs for a couple of months but I have read plenty of posts from people waiting for Cyanogen. Is this something completely different from anything out there now. Sorry, I just haven't had the pleasure of seeing a phone running it yet.

Those two and 4G of course. :)
[Epic 4G General] phdeez:
I think 4G will come when the Nexus S 4G comes out and the WiMax driver is ported over. I'll give up 4G in the mean-time for CM7.
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
When I get home this evening, ill get prepared to release an alpha.

Some things to remember:

Hardware accel is a tad wonky atm.

Video playback is bearable on youtube. Local, not so much.

Camera will not work.

Gps will not work.

Wifi has a save bug (I'll fix for release tonight.)

The ui is not as smooth as it could be yet.

The mute/speakerphone toggle bug is present from cm6. It wll be fixed soon, but not for alpha 1 release.

More soon.

[Epic 4G General] Shiggity:
art3mis is working on the 4G stuff actually last I heard. So it shouldn't be too long. Heh.
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
4g will come in time. Its at the very bottom of the list, however. The goal is to have every other aspect of the phone working before touching 4g.
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
I think you should add MMS doesn't work to the list, unless it was fixed with the newest update :p I know it keeps plenty of people from using this all the time.
[Epic 4G General] Shiggity:
Agreed ∞-fold. :) I was consider fuxxing with the alpha, but I'll wait for stuff like the UI responsiveness and fluidity etc to get better. I'll be following progress very closely though. Awesome work!
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
The UI Fluidity is related to the hardware acceleration. It will be fixed soon enough, as soon as I can get things working right. The easy way to see it is when you try to watch videos. You can tell they are being rendered in software mode.

We can back up pur RSA Keys though if I'm correct. So we could probably reinsert them. Although it could an Evo only issue due to the different Wimax Radios.

It's been based off of 2.3.3 since Feb 28th, as far the team twitter has said.:) I'm sure it's going to be amazing, I've already made a back up of my EB13 setup so I look forward to testing it.:)

I don't think MMS is, when the RIL was partially working he had tried it and reported back that it wasn't. I wouldn't be too sure that now that it's fully working that the least of our worries is over.

noobnl appears to be taking a sabbatical from development and the community. If he comes back and wishes to contribute, he's more than welcome to.

[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
I see in the about phone you're still using a froyo kernel? Is that only temporary? Or will it always be that way without an official build?
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
Because of the samsung proprietary drivers, we will probably have to wait for an official kernel, and/or+ source.
[Epic 4G General] deano0714:
Pm ahmgsk he has figured it out in miui.
[Epic 4G General] DevinXtreme:
What Dameon said, plus this:

Gingerbread will run on as low as the .29.6 kernel (maybe even lower, that's all I've seen) and work just fine. So, no worries :)

Can someone please tell me what the RIL does? I know its a noob question
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Woah wait, is this thing going to adjust the color of our displays like it did the Nexus S making them warmer??
[Epic 4G General] drizek:
Same here. The hardware is amazing, but Samsung has been a huge disappointment.

Hopefully the Nexus S 4G will help make things easier for the Epic devs.

I definitely see myself not changing out my phone this year. The Epic has been holding up great with the gorilla glass, and the internals are still amazing. Once it is running Cyanogen it will be an amazing android device. The GPU in it can still keep up with Tegra II.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
So after CM7 is released, what do we have to do to get back some of the functionality that Samsung actually provides like media playback of 720p mkv files? Will it be a simple apk install or do things like that rely on touchwiz?
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
It's the Radio Interface Layers. I'm no expert, but basically it's the separation of the telephone radio as well as the radio for data, bluetooth, gps, wifi, and in our case 4G, which is a bit harder to use/access.

Are you sure that CyanogenMod doesn't support 720p mkv codec? It has a large variety of accepted codecs, I'd like to think in an idea world that it's supported.
[Epic 4G General] NYYFan325:
http://letmegooglethat4u.com/?q=what+is+ril
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
Lol that's awesome. Also omg I want cyanogen performance settings option that has the tweaks and other stuff in it.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
I have talked to multiple people who said that they lost this functionality on their galaxy s by updating to cm7. Not sure if they were beta builds or whatever, but I'm pretty sure it's a samsung thing to support these codecs.
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
Ohhhh, I see. Hmmmm, I'm sure it could be incorporated somehow. Well I'd hope, I understand your concern though. Do you know where the codecs are located within our filesystem?
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Absolutely no idea how anything related to video playback is functioning on our phones.
[Epic 4G General] Finishure:
You will lose the ability to play some codecs.my wifes evo cant play avi videos but my epic can also when I tried the pre betas of cm6 on my epic you loose the abilty as well l.regardless cm is the best thing any phone can have coming to it so its worth it
[Epic 4G General] drizek:
I doubt mkv playback will work. Samsung does have some pretty decent things going on the software side, like a GPU accelerated browser, video playback and the camera/music apps.

I wouldn't mind so much if they just put out timely updates, and made the GPS work properly.
[Epic 4G General] Art2Fly:
I'm guessing no Alpha tonight :/ and Drizek, are you talking about Samsung or the CM7 team?
[Epic 4G General] drizek:

Although I wouldn't mind if the CM7 team got the GPS to work properly either.
